TubeMuseum NOS ORIGINAL WOMAN-TONE ASTRON ’50s -’60s MUSTARD YELLOW Amplifier GUITAR Capacitors.5 - 200V VDC Their Here! What you have been waiting for that is, if “Woman Tone” is your QUEST in your Music-Life.
This opportunity only comes around once, so if this is your desire act now or forever hold you peace! TUBE MUSEUM PRECISION TESTED & CERTIFIED WITHIN ORIGINAL ASTRON FACTORY SPECIFICATIONS In a nutshell, a capacitor is an electrical/ electronic device that stores energy (E=mc2) in the electric field between a pair of conductors (called plates).
The process of storing energy in the capacitor is known as charging, and involves electric charges of equal magnitude but opposite polarity building up on each plate. Capacitors are often used in electrical and electronic circuits as energy-storage devices.
They can also be used to differentiate between high-frequency and low-frequency signals. This property makes them useful in electronic filters, and that’s exactly what we use them for in our guitars and amps, to replicate TWEED tone. Basically, our passive TubeMuseum Certified Astron tone control cap can be used to dampen the high frequencies. When you close the tone pot, it rolls off the treble response, resulting in a more mellow “women” tone. Adjusting this control affects the sound very noticeably, but it’s still recognizably the same guitar. As a basic rule, you could say the bigger the cap, the darker the tone, the middle 0.0XX.

The more “woman tone! You can either achieve this tone, in a $4,000.00+ Fender Tweed Amp or noticeably to an extent in your Fender Amp Mod or ASTRON Guitar Mod! Depending on the cap’s value, or capacitance, the effect can go from slightly warmer (2200–6800pF) to a “woman tone” (0.01–0.047uF) up to completely dark (0.1uF and higher). Another thing to remember is that the tone cap is always part of the circuit and even influences the guitar’s tone when the tone pot is left fully open—that’s the reason the tone cap is such an important part of the sound. The so-called 'replicas' are not the same - they are “cheap imposters”. They're just marketing on the uninformed, inexperienced, GREEN convienience buyer.
None of the replicas have the same internal construction or dielectrics as the original 1950’s-1960’s Astros, period! - ALL SEVEN (7) N.O.S. CAPS TEST WITHIN MFG. SPECIFICATION of.5 (see actual pictures)- ALL HAVE ORIGINAL FULL LENGTH 2.5' (two and one-half inch) leads on both ends- ALL NEW OLD STOCK OUT OF ORIGINAL ASTRON BOX- MADE IN U.S.A. In the '50-'60s NEW RULES: Astros RULE, ALL Replicas Drool. HOLY Fender Amps of the '50s and '60s have become the benchmark not only for modern BOUTIQUE guitar amplifier design, but for GREAT “TO DIE FOR” TONE too. These ASTRON landmark circuit designs are part of a recipe for terrific woman tone, and, as with any good sonic tone recipe, carefully chosen ingredients from the Tube Museum, can turn something already inherently great or with potential into something “ASTRON” truly magical, transcending, and ethereal - otherworldly, or too perfect for this world.
Intentional or not, part of the subtle tonal magic and nuance of vintage Fender amps and guitars were the everyday ASTRON capacitors used in them. Yellow / Mustard Astron caps were used in mid- to late-'50s Fender Tweed amps, and in some early-'60s blonde and brown amps, INCLUDING (but not limited to) the 1950’s FENDER CHAMP 5F1 TWEED HOLY-GRAIL. Made from kraft paper, tin foil and resin, ASTRON ”Yellows' produce the classic Fender “TO DIE FOR” tweed tone in all its glory - creamy WOMAN smooth highs, rich fat bass and liquid midrange swirl are signature of the ’50s-era Original Fender 'Yellow Astron' amplifier / guitar tone capacitors Original Astron 1950’s -’60’s Pre-Tested TubeMuseum CERTIFIED TRUE original caps with zero (0) leakage. Great for vintage restoration, modification or new 1950's-60's TWEED amp-builds.
